International and Great Northern.

Special to the Gazette.
PALESTINE, TEX April ga report
of the impending change of hands of the
International and Great Northern Railway
has been the cause of much discussion
in business circles during the past few
days. Should the road go into the
hands of receiver as report con-
templates, Palestine would be highly
bens flied in financial points of view. The
shops at this point are now full, employ
ing as many men as before the late
strike. Master Mechanic Munroe has
drawn his present force from all over the
country, going as far as Wyoming and
Dakota for skilled workmen. OF the
present force in the shops only three or
four are of the number
employed there before the strike. Should
Gould give this road up to receiver it
would neCessitate compliance with the
laws Of the state and therefore q removal
of the headquarters and management
back to this place.
Since writing the above it has been
learned that all conductors and engineers
on the line have been ordered to proceed
as usual to and on the 30.h inst. inclu-
sive, and to keep reports separate after
that date, while the clerks are busy
checking goods and appear to be making
inventories,

There are three tiers of boxes, the

She never was idle,
She never would tire;
Her temper could bride,
Her servants inspire.
And ever her virtues he sang again:

She never spent money,
Was ever Centent;
To have a new bonnet
Would never consent;
Yet summer or winter, or shine or rain,
Would never stay

Was never too early,
Was never too late;
Her dinner was ready,

But ah he would never see again

Each darn a gem,
A vision Of beauty, pearl without stain

As daylight was breaking, on looking
back from a slight eminence. they be-
held the old scout some distance back
ON the trail and concluded to await his
approach
As he rode up, the party noticed that
his cOuntenancc was dGathiy n2!e, while
blood slowly trickled from hole in his
buckSkin blouse, where a bullet had
pierced his breast. NCleta, with great
concern. inquired if he was badly
wounded
II fear So" replied the scout. My
hours, | Think are numbered. Let us
hurry on and will strive to hold out
till we reach the settlement.
"But, scout had we not better exam
inc the wound and stanch the flow of
blOod?' asked the Captain.
"No; it would only result i'll delay. l
have already attempted to do so as
we'll as possible"
With that they once more advanced,
vet slower than usual, owing to the
scouts condition, he having nearly ex-
haustcd himself in his endeavOr to
overtako them, ere he succumbed,
though the hard riding had caused him
great suffering.
They were yet many miles from the
settlement, when, the old scout unable
longer to retain his saddle, expressed
desire to be lowered to the ground. The
Captain and Dick, thereupOn. removed
him from his horse and lay him gently
down. while Neleta supported his head
in her lap, and sOoths with loving
hands the tangled locks from his brow.
With a sad smile he extends his hand
to those about him, and bids them fare
we'll; and as Neleta with fearful eyes
bows her head and imprints a kiss on
his forehead, he fervently eXclaims:
"Ah, child, you were ever kind to me,
and the old scout never forgets. Good
bye, and with my dying breath will
bless YOU"
He tries to say more, but his voice
falters: and there, with the rising sun
shedding its rays of golden light ore
all, the faithful old scout breaths his
last.
Carefully they raised his inanimate
form, and supporting it between them,
proceeded toward the settlement. On
their arrival the sad news soon spread,
and all came to gaze for the last time
on his well-beloved face; for there were
none but who had on some occasion
had cause TO remember some one of the
many kind acts performed by the old
scout.
On the following day he was laid to
rest. Dick remained for some time at
the settlement The old scout had
been as father to him, and he could
not bear to so soon leave the haunts
where they had passed so many pleas
ant DAYS. Besides he had another OBJ
iect in remaining, the form of the beau
t,ful Neleta Ration, and ere he had de-
parted for his eastern home, she had
gladdened his heart by the promise of at
no distant day becoming his bride.
Captain Ration rebuilt his home, and
Dick. returning to claim the hand of
his daughter, was persuaded by him to
take up his abode at the ranch and
superintend his possessions; but in the
happy years which followed they never
forgot the sacrifice of the old scout, nor
ceased to long for his kindly advice or
the sight of his ever cheerful coun-
tenance.
